#Haskell, 85 bytes

My first submission, it will probably be the longest (85 bytes) but hey, you got to start somewhere. In Haskell:

import Numeric;f=('#':).concatMap((flip showHex)"".(15-).fst.head.readHex.(:[])).tail

It's using the same subtract from 15 trick I saw other people use.

I also tried using printf along with the other trick (subtract 8^8 - 1) and it works in ghci but for some reason it doesn't compile:

g=printf "#%06x" .(8^8-1-).fst.head.readHex.tail

If someone could make this work that would be great!
